Ok I just got my Epic from the store yesterday. I have been running on a TouchPro 2, stock rom. Other then the weather hack, the only other hack I had on it was to force roam. When I am at home I am luck if I get 1 or 2 bars from sprint. I live outside of the St. Louis area, about 70 miles. There is a US cell tower maybe about 1/2 to a 1/3 mile away from me. On my TP2 when I roam I get full service cause the tower is so close.
Now I needed the same thing from my Epic from Sprint. So I found this app, followed the instructions for rooting my phone, which I have 0 idea of what the purpose of that was and it worked just fine. I dl this app, paid the money for it, and am lucky when I run it to force roam if I get 1 or 2 bars if I am lucky.
So what am I not understanding here? Am I doing something wrong? Is the phone not picking up the tower? I am so lost and confused. I am just about ready to take the phone back and get a refund. So far I am not impressed with Droid at all, it can't even get my folders for my Hotmail.
Seriously though, help me here?!
